FIELD: information technology.
SUBSTANCE: digital photographic camera has a support structure, an objective lens held by the support structure and having an optical axis, a sensitive element held by the support structure under the objective lens and having a certain number of adjacent pixel rows, where each pixel row contains a certain number of pixels, and each pixel includes an image sensor, and the image signal processor connected to the sensitive element includes an image scaling device which is configured to scale each pixel row in accordance with the scaling factor which differs from the adjacent pixel row. The image scaling device is configured to correct the oblique angle between the sensitive element of the photographic camera and the objective lens, the image of which is being captured.
EFFECT: avoiding geometrical distortions caused by the position of image capturing apparatus relative the object whose image is being captured.
